Treatment Resistant Anxiety and ongoing Bipolar Depression

@Farzad430

I personally have not been through ECT but I know someone who was also at the end of the rope and it did help them. I am so sorry you have not had any response to anything. I know it has also taken me a long time. I have gone through cycles and periods of times where things have worked and then I had to change everything. I have to keep to a very strict schedule which my bipolar being does not like and I cannot say I always stick to but I do suffer. Such as same sleep and wake time, meal times, bed times, walking, meditating, talking with at least someone, therapy, meds same time a day to say a few. Hang in there my thoughts are with you.

Thank you so much for your thoughtful reply. I really appreciate it. Unfortunately it's a never ending struggle, and a very lonely one, since no one seems to understand you. Keep up the fight. Wishing you the best of success.

Never give up!

Hi, with my other medications I take Vyvanse. It’s used for me as an atypical antidepressant. I struggle with bipolar depression as well.

I believe that medication made me manic. Everyone is different. I have found a balance but still have to push so hard everyday and try to reach out of others, that is why a response from me took so long. Hope all is well

@Morckster I am taking trintellix for the bipolar I think it saved my life like you I was at the end of my rope and tried every medication they throw at me but then it was like I was my old self again like someone flipped a switch give it a try hope this helped you
